General Safety Instructions For Electric Tools; Workplace Safety; Electrical Safety - Parkside PHKSU 710 A1 Originalbetriebsanleitung

WARNING!
► The vibration level specifi ed in these instruc-
tions has been measured in accordance
with the standardised measuring procedure
specifi ed in EN 60745 and can be used to
make equipment comparisons. The specifi ed
vibration emission value can also be used to
make an initial exposure estimate. The vibra-
tion level varies in accordance with the use of
the electric tool and may be higher than the
value specifi ed in these instructions in some
cases. The vibration load could be underesti-
mated if the electric tool is regularly used in
such a way.
NOTE
► For an accurate estimate of the vibration
load during a certain working period, the
times during which the device is switched
off or is running but not actually being used
must also be taken into consideration. This
can signifi cantly reduce the vibration load
over the total working period.
General Safety Instruc-
tions for Electric Tools
WARNING!
► Please read all of the safety instructions.
Failure to follow the safety instructions listed
below can result in electric shock, fi re and/or
serious injuries.
Keep all safety instructions and other
instructions for future use.
The term "electric tool" used in the safety instructions
relates to mains-operated electric tools (with power
cable) and battery-operated electric tools (without
power cable).

1. Workplace safety

a) Keep your workplace clean and well-lit.
Untidy and poorly-lit working areas can lead
to accidents.
b) Do not work with the electric tool in potentially
explosive areas in which fl ammable liquids,
gases or dust are located. Electric tools produce
sparks which could ignite the dust or vapours.
c) Keep children and other persons a safe
distance away when using electric tools.
If you get distracted, you could lose control
over the device.

2. Electrical safety

a) The plug on the device must fi t into the mains
socket. The plug may not be altered in any
way. Do not use adapter plugs together with
earthed devices. Unmodifi ed plugs and suitable
wall sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid bodily contact with earthed surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ovens and refriger-
ators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed.
c) Keep electric tools away from rain and mois-
ture. If water or moisture penetrates an electric
tool the risk of electric shock increases.
d) Do not misuse the electrical cable, e.g. to carry
the device, hang it up or to pull the plug from
the socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil,
sharp edges and moving device components.
Damaged or tangled cords and defective plugs
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) If you are working with an electric tool out-
doors, use only extension cables that are
also approved for use outdoors. The use of
an extension cord certifi ed for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If use of the electric tool in a humid environ-
ment is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD). The use of a residual current
circuit-breaker system reduces the risk of electric
shock.
